Question

On July 1, Year 1, Livingston Corporation, a wholesaler of manufacturing equipment, issued $46,000,000 of 20-year, 10% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 11%, receiving cash of $42,309,236. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually on December 31 and June 30. The fiscal year of the company is the calendar year.

Required:

For all journal entries with a compound transaction, if an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

1.  Journalize the entry to record the amount of cash proceeds from the issuance of the bonds on July 1, Year 1. For a compound transaction, if an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

2.  Journalize the entries to record the following:

a.   The first semiannual interest payment on December 31, Year 1, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method. (For a compound transaction, if an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. Round to the nearest dollar.)

b.   The interest payment on June 30, Year 2, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method. (For a compound transaction, if an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. Round to the nearest dollar.)

3.  Determine the total interest expense for Year 1. Round to the nearest dollar.

4.  Will the bond proceeds always be less than the face amount of the bonds when the contract rate is less than the market rate of interest?

5.  Compute the price of $42,309,236 received for the bonds by using the Table 1, Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4. (Round to the nearest dollar.) Your total may vary slightly from the price given due to rounding differences.
